You cannot stay at the summit forever, You have to come down again. So why seek in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One hikes, one sees. One returns and remembers what they have seen. When in the lower regions you are glad for what you saw when you were up there. There will be a time when your visions are dimmed but you will at least know what it was like up there. You have seen what ...

Hi, I saw your question about the calendar, I was concerned about that also. I found it. Under the Track your Weight you will see "See Progress Reports". Click on that, go to the bottom of the page in Weight and Other Reports and you'll see, My Spark Summary Calendar. That's it! Hope this helps!

Tahosa, You are very smart to focus on what you CAN do to improve your health with diet and fitness...Sparkers make it worth it too. Maybe being more proactive with Sparkers will help keep you on the positive side. I know from experience that when health suffers the spirit gets cloudy. I pray good health and that this will turn for your good! God bless you my friend. Steadfast Denise PS - I am now an advisor for A Place for Mom! Have you heard of them?

Well I am back... like a yo yo. on again off again. I did really well in 2009 when we started Brookdale Weigh and sparkpeople, then got off track, came back, thought I was going to be committed... and well It didn't work.

When it comes to balance a life of family, work, family, stress, exercise and eating well, yada, yada, yada. I kinda sucked at that...

Any way I really need help and support. anmd I was hoping that you would still be around and check your page from time to time. You always inspired me.

Hmmm Hi MUDMAX... I was the Brookdale leader, and now work for Holiday Retirement...didn't work out after 5 years working for Brookdale, imagine that! lol

Anyway. I too am starting over. I find much motivation from Tahosa and want him to know that I just lost my Dad. He lost his Dad about a year ago.

Us who are left from Brookdale, maybe we can meet here on Tahosa's page to help motivate each other. We must all have large hearts because of our willingness to help seniors. I am fast approaching being one myself! lol

God bless! Steadfast Denise PS I have been able to keep 20 pounds off but would like to loose 15 more.
